nothing from His creation is to be elevated to His position as partner or equal and doing this is an unforgivable sin ( 4:48,116

). He is the Omniscient, knowing everything whether seen or unseen ( 6:101, 17:25, 22:70, 35:38, 59:22 ) and He is Wise ( 2:209 ). He is the Originator of the material and the energy in His creation, Assigner of Laws for the perfect and peaceful existence of His creation, Proportioner of the raw materials, Purifier as an eliminator of unwanted things and the Fashioner of the final products ( 2:117, 6:79, 30:30, 35:1, 59:24 ) He it is Who begins and gets things reproduced ( 21:104, 10:34 ). He sustains life ( 51:58, 15:20 ) through water ( 45:5 ), food ( 50:9-11 ) etc. bestowing more on some and less on others ( 2:212,245, 13:26 ). He fosters everything ( 6:164 ) in such a manner as to make it attain one condition after another until it reaches its goal of completion, i.e. He cherishes, nourishes, develops and evolves. He is the Lord of the worlds ( 1:1, 11:107, 9:129 ). His Rahmat which conveys the sense of benefit, reward, safety out of mercy, good etc. extends over everything ( 7:156 ). He has raised the heavenly bodies without any pillars and He is the Custodian, Controller and Monitor over everything ( 2:255, 4:85, 11:57, 13:2 ). He has the power to bring together all human beings on the day of resurrection ( 3:9, 77:38 ) and also the whole universe, ending it in the Big Crunch ( 75:9, 21:104, 39:67 ). He grants in abundance to whom He pleases ( 13:26 ). He is capable of finding, that is, nothing can be hidden from Him ( 38:44, 93:6 ). He computes, calculates and preserves the record of everything ( 36:12, 72:28 ). He inherits everything, that is, everything will go back to Him ( 57:10 ). He is The Praised. Everything, everywhere always praises and thanks Him but we do not understand their praise and glorification ( 17:44 ). His association with mankind : Real guidance is only Allahs guidance ( 2:120 ). He guides whom He wills to the right way (14:4 ). He creates everything, sets up equilibrium in it, programmes it and then guides it to follow the programme ( 87:1-3 ). He is the Author of peace, ( 59:23 ), Perfect, Sound, Defectless, Safe, Source of rising high, Dictator of the Religion of Peace i.e. Al Islam, before Whom everything submits as a Muslim ( 3:83 ). He is the Granter of security, peace, safety. He is Reliable and Trustworthy, in Whose existence we are required to believe. This belief or Iman is an internal condition and Islam is its expression. He is the Guardian Who prevails providing protection, exhibiting love and mercy ( 59:23 ). He is the Subtle, Who is informed of the internally hidden conditions of everything. His Grace, Kindness, Beneficence, Mercy etc. continuously work behind the scene without our noticing them immediately, we notice the result only after some time ( 6:103, 42:19, 67:13-14 ). Water is continuously evaporating without our notice to form clouds, we notice only the final effect as rain and vegetation. He is Clement, full of leniency, kindness, tolerance, forbearance, giving time for amendment though He has the power to punish us immediately for the sins committed by us ( 2:225, 3:155 ). Allah is the God, Strong and perfectly informed, inspite of this, His Authority is denied and others beside Him are worshipped, respected and obeyed. He has he power of retaliation, still He exhibits unmatched patience and restraint. He is The Loving. His love is associated with His mercy and forgiveness. Love should be reciprocal which requires response from human beings in the form of obeying His orders ( 11:90, 85:14 ). He responds to one who prays to Him ( 2:186,
